Let us suppose the number is x. Now we try to make an algebraic expression going step by step.
Step 1:
Five times the number means 5 multiplied by x.
So it becomes 5x.
Step 2:
Sum of 14 and five times the number means 5x+14.
Step 3:
Number multiplied by -8 means -8x.
Step 4:
Subtract the expression in step (3) from expression in step (2)
5x+14-(-8x)
Now we can simplify it further,
5x+14+8x
Combining like terms,
13x+14
Answer: The final expression becomes 13x+14.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1.8
Step-by-step explanation:
2 ( 4x-3) - 8 = 4-2x
Distribute
8x -6 -8 = 4- 2x
Combine like terms
8x - 14 = 4 - 2x
Add 2x to each side
8x - 14 +2x = 4-2x+2x
10x-14 = 4
Add 14 to each side
10x-14+14 = 4+14
10x = 18
Divide by 10
10x/10 = 18/10
x = 1.8
